<h2><a name="introduction"></a>Kepler Installation Instructions</h2>

<p>Kepler can be installed on Windows, Unix, Mac OS X and other platforms.</p>

<p>To install Kepler on an Unix/OS X platform you'll have to use the
<a href="http://luaforge.net/projects/kepler/files">Unix Package</a>
(a tar.gz or zip archive with the source files) and have some notion
of Unix commands and packages installation from the source.</p>

<p>To install Kepler on a Windows platform you just have to use the 
<a href="http://luaforge.net/projects/kepler/files">Kepler installer</a> (a Windows
executable file) and follow the instructions.</p>

<p>To install Kepler on other platforms you can use the
Unix Package and adapt the makefiles to the target platform.</p>

<p>After you install Kepler you'll need to check how
to use Kepler with your Web server. For more details please refer to the installation
documentation for the desired platform:</p>

<ul>
	<li><a href="install.unix.html">Unix/OS X</a></li>
	<li><a href="install.windows.html">Windows</a></li>
</ul>

<p>The installation procedures can have some subtleties and this documentation
will be constantly updated to reflect this. If you have any questions
concerning the installation process or some platform detail, please
<a href="mailto:info-NO-SPAM-THANKS@keplerproject.org">contact us</a>.</p>

<p>You can also reach other Kepler developers and users on the Kepler Project
<a href="http://luaforge.net/mail/?group_id=104">mailing list</a>.</p>
